DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is useful for taking care of a care recipient in a bedroom and taking a bath.

[0002]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the prior art, the device was large, so that care was difficult and the device was expensive. The present invention is directed to these solutions. The means for solving the problem are described in the embodiment.

[0003]

In the embodiment, the present apparatus is provided in a relatively small bathroom. Description will be made based on FIG. 1 is a bathroom, 2 is a bath tub, 3 is a washing room, 4 is a bathtub side wall,
Reference numeral 5 denotes a washing room side wall, reference numeral 6 denotes a ceiling, reference numeral 7 denotes the present apparatus, reference numeral 8 denotes a vertical column, which is divided into an upper vertical column 9 and a lower vertical column 10, and a flange 11 is fixed to a joint portion. To join. Reference numeral 13 denotes a fall prevention pillar fixed to the lower end of the lower vertical pillar and extending along the side wall of the washing place. The lower column has a cylinder 14 incorporated therein. Reference numeral 15 denotes a piston which moves up and down smoothly in a cylinder, reference numeral 16 denotes a rod for moving the piston, reference numeral 17 denotes a flange at the top of the cylinder, reference numeral 18 denotes water for domestic tap water between the piston and the flange, reference numeral 19 denotes a cock and a cock. The right end is connected to a domestic water pipe.
Turn the lever 20 to adjust the amount of increase of the water 18. Reference numeral 22 designates a cock having the same structure as reference numeral 19 and controls the amount of water discharged to the outside. Reference numeral 23 denotes an air hole through which air flows in and out of the piston. Reference numeral 24 denotes a horizontal column, which is attached to the upper end of the upper vertical column 9. Reference numeral 25 denotes a column supporting the horizontal column. Reference numeral 21 denotes a hinge. The horizontal pillar is a hanger rail, and there is a groove in the center of the lower side. Reference numeral 26 denotes a carrier having four wheels 27, which move lightly along the hanger rail. Also, two pulleys 28 are mounted on the sharya.
Reference numeral 29 indicates a fulcrum fixed to both ends of the carrier, and reference numeral 30
Is a sprocket mounted on the horizontal column, 32 and 33 are pulleys mounted on the horizontal column, 34 and 35 are fulcrums fixed to the horizontal column, 36 is a pulley mounted on the upper end of the rod 16, and 37 is a sprocket 30 And a chain engaged with the pulley 32, reference numeral 38 denotes a hanging rope for lifting the care receiver, reference numeral 39 denotes a hanger, and hooks 40 are fixed to both ends of the hanger to be engaged with a body holder worn by the care receiver. . A pulley 42 is mounted at the center of the hanger. The hanging rope 38 is fixed to the fulcrum 34 and the pulleys 36, 33, 28, 4
It is bent at 2 and the right side 28 and fixed to the fulcrum 35. A hand wheel is fixed to the shaft 43 of the sprocket 30 (not shown).
The hand chain 44 engages with it. A swing pipe 45 enters the right end of the horizontal column. The horizontal column and the swing pipe are connected by a connecting shaft 46 and have a play 47 above the swing pipe. Also,
A pressing plate 48 is fixed to the right end of the swinging vip, and a screw hole is formed in the center of the pressing plate, and a bolt 49 is engaged. Symbol 50
Fixes the pressing plate 52 with a side wall pressing device. The left side of the side wall press is a square pipe with a lower side removed, and a shaft 53 is swingably mounted on the square pipe. The center of the shaft 53 and the right end of the bolt 49 are fixed. Rubber is applied to a portion of the pressure plate that comes into contact with the side wall of the bathtub. The combination of the swing pipe 45 and the side wall press 50 is referred to as a side wall engaging body.

[0004] The operation of the present apparatus will be described. Since this device is a cantilever composed of a vertical column and a horizontal column, it tends to fall to the right side in FIG. 1, but it does not fall because the side wall presser at the end of the horizontal column pushes the bathtub side wall. Also, in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper of FIG.
If the weight of the cared person is added to the horizontal column, the tip of the horizontal column is lowered (deflection of the cantilever). However, since the lower end of the vertical column and the tip of the horizontal column are almost diagonal to the bathroom,
The tip of the horizontal pillar is not less than the above. When the connecting shaft 46 is lowered, the left end of the oscillating pipe 45 is lowered. However, the shaft 53 is not lowered due to the connecting shaft 46, the play 47 and the shaft 53, so that the pressing plate 52 is not lowered, so that the side wall presser damages the side wall of the bathroom. Absent. These devices are side wall rubbing prevention devices. Further, since no moment acts on the oscillating pipe but only a compressive force acts on the oscillating pipe, the strength of the oscillating pipe can be small and light. The bolt 49 is for adjusting the length of the horizontal column. Next, close cock 22 and move lever 2 of cock 19
If 0 is moved and the tap water is injected into 18, the rod 16 is lowered due to the water pressure, the hanger 39 is raised, and the cared person is raised. Close cock 19 and open cock 22 to get 18
The water decreases and the hanger drops. When the hand chain 44 is pulled, the sprocket rotates and the hanger moves along the horizontal column. Next, as the inner diameter of the cylinder is larger, the load applied to the hanger can be increased. However, the inner diameter of the cylinder is determined in consideration of a drop in water pressure. If necessary, a pressurized pump is provided. When the side wall is not strong as in a unit bathroom, the swing pipe 45 is branched into two near the right end in FIG. 1, and each side wall is provided with a pressurizer, which pushes both ends of the side wall. .

[0005]

As the lift of the present apparatus is a cantilever, the usable area is large. In addition, since the care receiver can move up and down by turning the cock lever, the operation is easy. In addition, since water pipes for water supply can be used for the cylinder, the cost is low. When the bedroom is large and the lift is used in a part of the room, only the swing pipe needs to be lengthened. Swinging pipes are light and inexpensive.
